I love you. Now enjoy this episode of Jeremiah Wonders with Teddy Ray. We'll get you right up. You can pull this forward so that way that way you can get right.
Like right up on it like this. Right up on it. Yeah. Like the poor's in it.
Yeah, right up on it. Right up on it. Just stare at it. Looking in the soul and say, hey, hey, I'm your next disappointment.
That'd be honest. That's what you say. Maybe not sexually but in life yet. I'm about to disappoint you.
This is going to be fun, but sad. Get ready for a huge letdown. You thought I was going to wife you. Never.
Never. How dare you? That's not happening. It's coming soon.
Spring 2020. As soon as Teddy gets his shit together, he's going to let this bitch have it. That's my life. That's your life?
Not really. I'm not that tall. Yeah. And also you feel like you have your life together to some extent, right?
Yeah, but I don't want to ever be too relaxed and thinking like, you doing all right. I made a nice chunk of change off comedy. I was like, oh, he's got to work for six months. I just really was that blind.
He's like, no, you still got to get up and do something. Marvellous. The shit that you do tomorrow is going to pay off six months. Like everything just has a pay off a different payoff.
Everybody pays different dividends. Right. Especially with art and so I just got to stay creative. Like teaming up with good people like Jeremiah, you know, who I highly respect.
Oh, thanks. Because I've been doing comedy, what, nine years, eight years? Nine years? I don't know.
I'm not. And I've been saying, you since the start, bro. Yeah. I mean, we went to, what is this?
We did a beat machine. We did a we started off doing. We start doing open mics together. Yeah.
And comedy store pop looks. Yeah, we did the pilot for years together. That used to be the fun of starting because it was I was I have I was able to record some of those sets. Oh, me too.
Because some of them also I just wish that they had some of the sets that you would do and Jamar would do were just outrageously fun. And it was like in front of like maybe only 50 people, but like the comics in the back would be like Hooten Haller and it'd be like so exciting because if you kill them from that group, you're like, oh, I can I can handle anything killing in front of comics is just like a tap on the shoulder because comics don't laugh. It's it's true. They'll sit there.
I remember the first few times I went up there and I remember I remember getting a reaction. I was different from other people. I felt I felt, you know, a sense of encouragement because you mean it's like things they encourage you to keep going company or else. Yeah.
I don't know. I don't know how some of these people do it. People that laugh in my shit and I would feel damn it. But I just I just I just noticed a different sense of just like, OK, me putting in more hoops in the gym.
Like this is me just working out. Oh, yeah. I mean, anytime you go outside of like places like that, like after you do a mic, this is horrible. You're like, oh, this is easy.
Man, three minutes and I was really departmental. I was like, oh, I'll get the killer for three minutes. Yeah. And then you mad because you want moments.
I know. You're like, the stars already on. You ever get played off? In the main room, I did.
And I got so mad because I was a development spot. It was before I got past and dude, I just like shot up a look to the sound. It was like, bro, why are you treating me like this? I'm like 15 seconds over.
What are you like? What are you doing? That's almost like you fucking in your house and your landlord just unlocks and it's like, you're about to get a bit. Yeah, I'm in the pussy.
Yeah. And I have I've been paying my dues here. I've been like, OK, I might have been like, I'm just a little bit. Just a week or two.
I mean, but still I've been a good tenant for the most part. Yeah, a perfect tenant. I don't even enjoy. Everybody enjoys me around the complex.
I gave you oranges that one summer after that soccer game. Just a bag of oranges here. It's for you and Pueblo and the kids. I don't know.
Dude, I've been I've been it's been really cool to see your career kind of take off through social media and stuff like that. Because you're involved in a lot of different stuff through like different YouTube shows and Instagram and stuff like that. And it's pretty cool to see like as your friend, like me saying, like you do well at the open mic level to just being naturally funny in internet videos and killing it. It's pretty cool.
It's definitely when I started comedy, I had a 10 year plan. I thought it was going to be crappy till year 10. Like that was my mindset. So take me along the journey of like, OK, this is what I this how far or where I think I'll be by like year two or three or six or whatever.
Like what were you thinking was like, was there a checklist or something? You think how to do by year five? I needed at least one TV credit. Yeah, at least one or some type of credit to where somebody recognizes me outside of my peers.
OK, you know, that meant a lot to me. I don't know why, but it just it meant the first thing I booked, I booked it in year three and it never got released, but still just me booking it. It was like, OK, it was encouraging. Everything is just all encouragement.
Like you're doing the right thing is it's tough to commit to something that doesn't pay you every time you do it. You know, every time people go to work, the reason why they keep your eyes and work is every day. They got more money for you. You just stack and more money.
You don't show up here. If they say, oh, we don't got no money. You'll be like, well, you don't have no work. We still got to come work sometimes for nothing or just, you know, for favors and just the network or help people out or maybe just being a venue that we've never been in before and just trying to get in the doors in different places, like it's still levels of pay and dues and just sacrifices and just committing to yourself.
Yeah, it's really easy. I mean, this is why some people give up on stand up is like, there's so many dues that you have to pay along with and so much free work. There's so much free work, like traveling like half an hour, 45 minutes sometimes and that's even another level of it. At the beginning, there's like, there's like, we got stage time for you.
And you're like, okay, where is it? Yeah, San Bernardino. Yeah, you start, you start putting it in the GPS. You're like, I've never been heard of the city, but there's a stand up.
Okay, I guess I'm going. You remember the first time you got paid? Yeah, there was a how much was it? Because we don't talk about LA payments.
There was a handful of times that I got paid. First time somebody put money in your hands, right? Telling jokes because actually that was like, what? Yeah.
And I don't remember specifically the first time because like around the time, I think it was like honestly like a show like Bar Luebitch or someone. Okay. So some is like, here's $10. I was like, $10.
And that's only did eight minutes. And then that same eight minutes, it gets you $3,000 somewhere. Yeah, it's crazy not a game where it's good. That's where was a bar luge.
I think like somewhere like Bar Luebitch or something like El Sanamago Boulevard. Okay. Cause like I did the thing, like when I started out, I was doing like, I did a few bringer shows where you had to sell your own tickets, but that doesn't really count because you're just taking your friends money. You know what I mean?
And like resell in the tickets. Forcing them to buy two drinks. Yeah. Show's out of words.
Cause if you don't, either the people love you so much, they're whether they're gassing you and they're just going to laugh at whatever you say. Yeah. Or as you got a bunch of people that's irritated and you better be funny. Cause I just spent 20 to get in, probably 10 for parking.
Yeah. Then I got to buy two drinks. I brought my girl out that she knows. He you feel me?
Like she got to see what's up. She don't think I just want to support my friends. So now she want to drink and then she get hungry. And now, you know, it's a different energy sometimes with bringer shows.
Once you build up that confidence on stage, people going, when people hear about you doing good, that's what brings people to draw more people to the show. Yeah. You know, the buzz is around it. The buzz is around it.
Like, Oh, he really, no, he's really funny. Like, yeah, when first time I saw you, it was like, you was funny. I mean, you the way you commit to shit. Like you're, I don't, I still haven't seen you.
Maybe you and Jamar probably most committed motherfuckers to a joke that appears to kind of like not work or just, it's just off tilted. And then it just, you flop on stage one night, bro, for like 10 minutes. You just flopped and like, I was just like, what the fuck? Where are you going with this?
I'm just laughing at the commitment. Now I'm just like, you just flopping like, I don't know what the joke was about. I just remember you flopping and then do it. It's just like, okay, that's what I want.
I just, I just, I want to be completely free like that and fearless and just, I'm not going to flop on stage because I don't look weird. I look like a sea lion and then people go and be like, Oh, do it right. That's a ball on your nose. It's a throw on snacks.
Right. It's starting to throw many fishes in. I'm going to get up and start sucking people. You do it.
Still got a lot of even obvious smiling and a lot of aggression in my heart. Do you? Yeah. I feel like it's really defensive.
I don't I don't want no problems. I feel like sometimes when people are very happy and public and carefree, it sometimes can mean that there is some kind of like not an issue, but like there's a tendency to get angry like outside of certain places. Like I mean, I definitely like I get to a boiling point where I like, if I reach that, then I unleash and sometimes it ends up being an audience member who catches me on the night where they start heckling. And I'm like, this was a huge mistake on your part.
Yeah. Like I just unleashed. I've just got my cable cut off all kind of shit and I'm about to address it. Every life issue.
Yeah. Yeah. It's all going to. Right.
Yeah. I like to be nervous because my first experience with a heckler, I got shut down. Where the heckler was kind of funnier than me. Oh, they wanted you to do that.
Yeah. That's that's what I realized like you have to make. Yeah. At the end of the day, I have the mic.
So I'm louder. So what did they what did they say that was the audience on their side? No, he was just kind of like, OK, black people. I'm going to talk to us.
You feel me right now. This is he brought me here because he likes to hear the word negative. Sometimes you know, you know, he just want to hear it around. Just let me be in a room where negative is free to just be.
I just want to be a part of something. Right. I just I can't get away when I just want to feel, you know, free. And I want that kind of freedom that whiteness is just let me go on stage and I'll tell no jobs, but still be fucking hilarious like this.
And I see I don't want people probably comparing to Jim Carrey. You know, these other people, but you Jeremiah Watkins. Oh, thanks. You know, you're going to be somebody legendary one day.
You already are. What was I talking about? You're talking about the heckling experience. Oh, yeah.
It's not came up looking like Matt 10. He had the brains and the fucking dusty goatee. And I just said one or two words, probably my third time performance. So I didn't really know how to handle it.
I didn't really know. It was like I could walk out to the crowd, you know, I could say something like already just have something in the back of the head. I don't even know what you look like, but I'm going to just say something. Whatever just about just hit you in the gut and dive in.
If you continue to give me that, I usually try to keep it cool. Like I'm not to do that. I like to open up about my life. Yeah.
So what does this do to you? I don't really remember what you said. I just remember I couldn't get a word in. Like I felt like I couldn't.
I was I'm the type of dude. I paid too close attention to shit. So I'm really trying to hear every word instead of just firing off. If I just fired off, I was really trying to listen.
Like what was that? Yeah, what did you say? I'm built like a me. I'm like, I'm here to stay again.
Okay. I was a good one. I mean, I'm like, I'm pretty I'm pretty. I'm thinking this.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Have you ever gotten heckled or roasted?
We were like, OK, I got got like pretty bad. You remember any of those? Not. No, I'm not.
We were doing a Keptone show and David Tell was the guess. And this one had my long hair down to my shoulders. And David Tell told me that I look like Tom Petty's daughter. And I like literally had to like give it up to Tim.
Immediately I was like, yeah, it's too funny. That's you spot on. Yeah. Anytime somebody hits your spot on.
You got to get proud of your. Yes. OK. Can I really tell me I was built like a new avalanche?
So I was like, OK, one of what you know, it's funny. Funny enough, I'm remembering remembering early on times when I got paid early on the tell you talk about one of them was at the family room. When I did a set out there, Teddy runs this great show in kind of East LA, kind of you can be honest. It's just a central central.
OK, way south central. It's a constant adjacent. Constant adjacent. You're like, you're looking down the street.
You know, so I usually I used to wear a red jacket back in the day. And I was a safe jacket for that area. That was a safe jacket. Yeah.
I was wearing a plaid jacket just to be safe. You would have showed him in a ranch. I can do the whole block. I can't get blood and blah, blah, blah, blah.
He's way blood. I don't got any. I think white blood. Come on.
Yeah, I had a good set and there's a couple of audience members who threw money at me on stage and man, that was such a good feeling. And then I got free chicken wings right afterwards. Man, it was like dude, amazing. Let's go.
Do this is a long time ago. Yeah, this is right. Eight years ago. They're not giving a free chicken.
That's eight years ago. Times are hard and when I bought chicken prices, I used to really hook the comics up. We just stopped doing the family room. But oh, yeah, you're doing that room forever.
Yeah, you know, everything is just time. I was really there. You know, people have a gym where they favor Jim to work out at. And that just became my favorite gym to get strong at because it was one of the toughest rooms.
Of course. But if you get them going, it feels like you're doing a staple center. Well, that's the thing that I feel like whenever it's whatever you want to call it, an urban room, black room, whatever. OK, cool.
So when you do those rooms, they're really freaking hard. But if you win the most. Say words like freaking. If you win them over, though, it's one of the best feelings in comedy, because what I've noticed is when anybody, any comic who goes in there who's trying to adapt to the room, they freaking fail so hard.
But if you are true to yourself and people can tell that you're being true to yourself, like whenever I do those rooms and there's a lot of music or whatever, they're being brought up to, I goofy dance because I love to dance and they're like, looking at me like, this is crazy. Like, I appreciate it. If you want to try to pop up and you all see me body rolling like making you not us. You don't need no more job.
We don't need more Chris Brown. Right. Like, come on, bro. Tell your jokes.
Yeah. That's what that's what urban rooms I guess you would call it. That's what they like, honestly. So, yeah, life is real.
If you go to a place where people, yeah, the surrounding areas and I think it's our people talk to me after the shows about all kind of shit that they don't survive that week. And the fact that I made them laugh that week, it's a big deal. It's a big deal. Big deal.
Just all I want to go down the rundown and make it look better than what it is. But people really live life out here and shit happens. People that came up to that show after right after people to die, like that same, like, yeah, they need people just got shot. I can't even think straight or I'm going to do some dangerous.
You feel me and they come there and it's like, you know, yeah, it's like a true mental vacation from whatever problems they have going on at home or whatever. And and also like I've had people after shows like, like, like say, like, we spent all our money to get tickets. So otherwise we would buy merch and I was like, take a CD. Thank you for coming.
You know what I mean? Like that's that's crazy. Like if that's all you're doing. Yeah, you like that's a big deal.
Like I don't take that lightly. That's pretty cool. Especially if you're spending your lives, man. That's that's something on my art.
I appreciate a lot of people. People lie. Do you remember me and like if we connected that day and we chopped it up on some real shit, I really will remember you because I remember moments where people bless me and times where I really have a right home that night. Somebody that thought I did get a game.
You know, but anyway, shout out to the family room. I appreciate you. Y'all blessed a lot of comics. I told the owner that last time was there.
Y'all really blessed a lot of comics and gave us a platform to really just be ourselves and overly expose and express and be vulnerable to a room full of goodness. You feel me? At any given night, you could be performing for a honey ladies or 50 months. Yeah.
Like the family room with flippin with switch. The energy will be different sometimes. So it'd be. I love that spot though.
So like on the contrary, like maybe the room that's not like a hood room, like maybe it's like a super white room. What do you think that the expectations are of a room like that? Of what? Like because you know, we're talking about like a hood room or an urban room, like they want you to be true to yourself.
Like otherwise. And come with it and come with it and come with jokes and like performance. Performance is big, which that's why I love that some of my favorite rooms do because I actually get praised for if I'm committing and I'm going for it and the joke is there. They'll be like, OK, yeah, we're with you.
I'm silly. Don't show me some I ain't seen before. Yeah. You know, that's that's really what it is.
If you don't have to do what you should they've seen before or just it just I don't know. Some people have a thing with comedy and they just be ranting about they date and I'd be like, this is not your therapy. Right. This is like find a joke somewhere.
I know. Yeah, just quit Aaron. Stop Aaron out. Like what's going on here?
So you took up 10 minutes of the crowd time to just talk about how your kids get on your nerves and go to therapy. Talk to your kids. Yeah. Fuck talking to us.
Tell your kids how you feel. And that's why they're poking you at the house and calling you a bitch ass parent. Make it because you come to us with the problem. Go to them.
Shove it down. They throw it. You don't want to hear it. What would you say the expectations are for other rooms that you've experienced outside of a room?
Mm hmm. Right. I've noticed that like if you if people check notes in certain rooms, you lose a lot of the crowd. They're like, oh, this person not even prepared.
I paid good money. Okay. Right. Right.
It just depends. I'm traveling more. So I'm seeing more, but really a lot of the clubs just come with it. Just be professional.
Don't be don't come in rude. Yeah. Don't come in like you owning the shit. Like, you know, I'm paying y'all tonight.
Make it another weekend to the year. Yep. Like you won weekend to the year. Like, oh, I'm paying everybody bills.
You knocking out a couple of them bills or something. Like you're not even doing just, you know, show show show low be respectful. And they, I feel like the clubs remember that more than, you know, of course they don't remember themselves, but they go always remember who came in and was respectful. Yeah.
You know, and her comments, you know, we know to be rude and shit. Like, yeah, for sure. Anytime you have, you come with manners to a club, they're so appreciative. Right.
Because they're like, oh, the last comic was a nightmare last weekend. So did I, but was a dick. I've heard of Sony stores, the headliners. They're like, yeah, they crush and, you know, they did good ticket sales, but they're horrible to deal with like the whole weekend.
Right. I want to be easy to deal with. And I feel like that's kind of what I probably myself on. Even because I don't know.
Only thing you got to deal with me is the week. Like you got to just let me smoke. Yeah. Have a little weed smoke in the air or around the premises.
So don't be that club. They'll be like, you can't even not the alley either. No, fuck that. I'm standing right outside the door to you.
I'll call me on stage. Y'all got me fucked up. Oh, sending you today with a special speed we package. So man, shout out to speed.
We appreciate you. Yeah. I'm talking to you. The I used to do the speed.
We used to do the other battles, not the rose battle, the rap battle. Remember the rap battles with Jamar and Chris and all of them. Yeah. I lost the fucking Tony Hinchquiff.
Yeah. I lost Becky Robinson because I didn't realize that people were going to like prepare stuff. Bro, she broke me on stage. I was like, you like you know, you're ready.
You're ready. Like I was just going off the top. Like I'm having fun. I'm just doing like an improvised rap battle.
I'm like, I'm used to doing like music and probably like, you know, like teams or whatever, like sketches or whatever. It was such a different game. I got mop the floor. I was like, this is embarrassing.
I didn't even come with it at all. And she like she hit me with like eight bars. I'm like, what is happening right now? I started trippling up the bars.
I'm like, are you Jay Z? Yeah. And then you start to play with that. And let me do my detractors.
Just like that. Like what the fuck? Hell no. Shout out to Becky Robinson.
No, she's great. Yeah. She's talented. Tony Hinchquiff with my ass.
I mean, you're on a show called Rose Me. Yeah. You know, it started the show. Rose Me.
You started that show. Yeah. Nice. I mean, you got to be, you know, shout out to everybody here, whatever.
Yeah. I started Rose Me. Yeah. Like on.
You know what it is? I kind of. I feel like I love a roasting. Not to say I feel like I don't know.
I like roasting if it's calls for it. Yeah. But just constant roasting. That's it.
It started to annoy me. Oh, OK. Like when it's rattling off. Yeah, just waking up to us.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Yeah. Eight AM nine AM.
You built like an up and then it says like what? I'll try to start my day. I'm just drinking some tea, bro. I don't know what I'm doing.
I don't need this in my feed right now. So once it really like every like it was just all day, every day, like if it was just like you was just regular niggas just two weeks ago and then not everybody want to be a roaster. Yeah. I know it's just come on, bro.
I don't let me find something. Did you do siblings? Yeah. Did you all roast each other?
Growing up? I didn't really grow up closely with all my siblings. But when we get together, we chop. Yeah, we chop it in.
What what sisters give me the hardest, though. Yeah. Yeah. My sister's ruthless.
Dude, sometimes ladies are way harsher than guys. Man. Like some of the rose battles I see some of the the women say is this is especially woman on woman. It's unbelievable how dark they'll get.
Because they'll really expose you and talk about what hurts you on the inside. And you'd be like this. You realize this is just a wack. I talked about your feet.
You talk about reason why my childhood affect you. Like you really talking about the crime. Mid-rose. Yeah.
That's why you don't argue with like certain women you feel you know, they just going to pull it out of you. Well, what was your what was your childhood like as far as like, like what kind of upbringing did you have? Like what kind of neighborhood that kind of multiple neighborhoods, sometimes neighborhoods to be fucked up. Sometimes they'll be nice.
What area between Florida and LA. So I was born in LA, stayed in LA. So I was about to move to Florida. That was, you know, the riots that hit shit was going to water.
What did your family get out around there? No, not my family. They just sent me just because. Oh, yeah.
It's one of them to be close. Right. It was hell of shit cracking everybody. This is the height of gang banging.
It just felt like it was never going to end in 90. Just don't get worse. Yeah. Cracked just got better.
Like new crack. It was just getting out of hand. So I sent me to Florida with my grandparents. New crack.
It's just it. So I think that gave me a more commerce spirit, you know, just being down there when people were retirees, you know, I listen a lot of oldies and shit. Like people say I'm old now. Just I just brought with old people.
Like quiet time. Yeah. No, turn that shit down. People think I'll just lie on the ratchet or whatever.
Yeah. Well, we're some of the bands that you grew up listening to. My daddy, my granddaddy, Papa, he loves James Brown. Like that was.
Yeah. Yeah. That's when you know it's time to clean. He don't want to do bad.
I don't know. But I didn't see you. And then it just be like, OK, oh, this is crazy man. It's great.
It's boiling and it's a James Brown plan. The ghost of James Brown is actually calling in right now. Oh, shit. Hello.
James is this you? This is James Brown. Hey, sorry. I'm here and you are.
Hello. Oh, there you are. I'm good, man. Thanks so much for calling to the show.
James, what have you been up to in heaven? No, no, no, no. Endless Buffalo Wings. Wow.
No. No. Do you do weekly concerts for God and some of the other angels up there or? You still charge admission in heaven.
Oh, yeah. Oh, is that what you used to the cold floor as you're building up privacy fence in heaven? No. I've always been curious about this, James.
You were quite the player when you're down here on earth. What's going on up in heaven with your sex life and everything, man? Now James, did you want to say anything to Teddy before you go? Because you called in the show and that sometimes happens on Jeremy.
I wonder when we start mentioning and talking about celebrity to hear about it and they call in the show, did you have anything to say to myself or Teddy before you go? Yeah. You really kick it eventually. Yeah.
Yeah. Right. Yeah. Yeah.
Let the time be. There's three weeks. There's three weeks. That's in heaven.
Oh, yeah. You have your own street in heaven. Yeah. No, it's a minute.
It's kind of like, you live in a quiet neighborhood, James or. Up across the hood. Ope high by the hills. Okay.
That's cool. Yeah. Yeah. No, I think it's.
No, do you have anything to say about like, I don't know if you know there's a documentary that came out about your buddy Mike Lately. Do you have anything to say about that? Oh, so he reverted back to his original skin color when he hit heaven. It's a good habit.
You got mad credit in heaven? Number five. I got it in heaven. Number five.
That's the word. But yeah, we'll send good vibes and energy his way on mine and Teddy's behalf. All right. Cool.
Thanks for calling in James. The 30x. The 30x. I guess you are in heaven so you have the most advanced model.
It's the only deal. Yeah. All right. Well, thanks man.
Hey. All right. Well, it'll be a little bit. Oh, man.
It's crazy. The shout outs. It's cool that he called in man. Must know that you're a genuine fan.
I really used to have the dancing James on TV. No. I feel good. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, every black household at least from 95 up until I was about 17 had a dancing James.
Really? See. Press the button. If they were to sell a dancing Chris Brown in 10, 15 years and they do back flips and all kind of shit.
People would buy that. So this was funny like growing up like in Kansas on a very white side of things. Every house had that singing bass that looked at you. Oh, that was our James Brown.
Hey, what you doing? Hey, what's going on? Hey, did they because you made it in your kids. You guys did not punch me.
Put it in the freezer for me, baby. Yeah. Was Kansas rough like talking to me about Kansas? No, I guess I mean, no, it was like, it was cool.
Like I had a good childhood. Yeah. My parents didn't give divorce to like, like I was like in high school. I was like a junior.
Okay. You understood it. You saw it come. Well, yeah, yeah, it built up to where I was like, yeah, you guys are better apart, which is, you know, it's kind of a sad thing like to be like, you know, a teenager and be like, nah, it's actually better if you're not, like you're agreeing because like my parents would like ask me, they're like, do you think it like, you know, like how do you feel about this?
Like, I'm going to watch my parents stay together for the sake of the talk. Well, exactly. So they would ask me, they're like, you know, having, and I was like, honestly, I feel like. I don't think I should have ever fight.
I don't know how I'm hearing. Your energy is all the way off. Yeah. Yeah.
So you grew up in Florida with older people up until I was nine and then they got sick and then I had to come back to the way and face the real. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
After nine it was all paradise, blue skies, a nigga, every toy, like, uh, that's it. That's like, grandparents literally spent their whole entire, like, on me. Like, I was like, well. That was their world.
That was their life. Yeah. I was the only child for a minute of until my dad had more kids and then, you know, but for the most part, like it was, I think I couldn't complain, you know, from two to nine, I couldn't now because of other things you black, you know, did you get asked what was going on? Oh, yeah.
Absolutely. Yeah. We all got asked what was going on. I felt like my ass was the end of the world.
